Team, the Marquette poll released this week shows this race is neck and neck. We'd be lying if we said we weren't worried. Take a look:
After leading in previous Marquette polls, Mandela is now trailing by one point. We cannot ignore the possibility that Ron Johnson could win in November.
Losing this race would be a devastating blow to Democrats' ability to expand the Senate majority. Now that Ron Johnson is gaining ground, we can expect his dark-money groups to ramp up their attacks to try to defend this seat.
So Mandela needs your help. Now more than ever. Please:
Use this link to contribute $3 or whatever you can afford to Mandela Barnes’ U.S. Senate campaign. Now is the time that he needs you most, because the attacks are going to get even worse after this poll.

As if these poll numbers were not enough, there's more.
Just yesterday, Roll Call rated the Wisconsin Senate race as "Tilt Republican."
Plus Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight still has Ron Johnson favored to win.
Ron Johnson is still considered the most vulnerable Republican Senator up for re-election. But defeating an incumbent senator who is propped up by special-interest donors and dark-money groups was never going to be easy.
So today we are looking for a very large number of donations to show that Mandela has the grassroots momentum and the resources to win this race.
Please contribute $3 – or whatever you can afford – to stand with Mandela Barnes today. Our ability to win this race will come down to the number of people who decide to chip in to help build a winning campaign.
Thank you, as always, for your generous support. Mandela cannot do this without you.
